Houllier was a bit cringeworthy .... especially when he said that after 2005 CL final he popped into the dressing room and the players were giving him the credit for the win, "It was your team Boss". But sure, didn't he win the 1998 world cup for France as well.
Condor is a really good CIA thriller. Billions is absolutely top quality. I only watched it because of the praise it got on here. If I was nitpicking (which I do) I would say it descends too far into comedy by season 4 and the overuse of music/movie references gets tedious. But that is a very minor complaint for a highly recommended show.
I watched The Comey Rule on sky last week. Brendan Gleeson is superb as Trump. If only 10% of it is true ..... wow!!
Band of Brothers sequel is due to begin filming in March, the original is right up there with the greatest shows ever made if not the best ever for the quality throughout the entire series. Hard to see how they can keep that level of quality going but hopefully they can offer something that will at least do the original some justice.
Big year in big school on VM is really good, it has been on for the last 5 Sundays. They're all available on the player, actually the 1st episode will come off it tomorrow
Only got to watch this a few years back. Great show but you are right, the only way is probably down.
Didn't they do a second one, set in the Pacific? I seen to remember it being okay, but not as good as the original one. One idea might be to do one set on the Korean, or Vietnam wars. Trying to make TV shows or Movies at the moment, most be very difficult, given the need for social distancing etc.
read online that a Dexter 10episode run has been ordered by showtime !! Michael c hall will return in it...filming beginning early next year! Delighted with this..
Probably in a minority of one on here but I'm very excited about the new season of The Crown. I love it. Me and the missus had it planned to go to London and Buckingham Palace for my 40th. Pandemic meant that didn't happen but we'll do it eventually. I'll do at least 6 of the 10 tomorrow.
I've never watched it but I seen an ad for the new series and Gillian Anderson looks very good as Margaret thatcher, looks and sounds like her.
Yeah,seen that. She never would of come into my head in a million years to play Thatcher,but she looks like she nailed it.
I also have watched the crown and have enjoyed it to date - looking forward to this new season. I wonder how close to fact/reality it all is, because it is very believable.
Just started 1st season the other night. Its enjoyable. Refreshing to see Churchill portrayed without the usual worship. Really enjoying The Undoing also.
They were talking about it on the radio last week and apparently the queen and thatcher didn't get on well at all. Thatcher thought she was better than the queen cos she had to work hard for everything she achieved, she had no respect for people who were born in to privilege.
